Chromebook compatibility?
-
We ordered several Rokit Smart Kits for our classrooms. Is the necessary software compatible with a Chromebook or will students need laptops with greater storage space and download abilities?

@alancox I can check again but as far as I know installing the driver was usually necessary to detect the board. You can try using Codebender here if you would like.
Here is the information from that old lesson:
On the bottom of that same workspace, you're going to see two drop-down menus: one is for your board, and the other is for your port.
For your board, select Rokit-SmartInventor-mega32_v2.
For your port, there may only be one option, depending on how many things are plugged into your computer at once! If you run your code and get a message saying your device is unresponsive, change your port and that should help.

We used chromebooks last year with rokit smart, what has changed?
I am setting up my classroom and the lesson link is no longer available.

Hi @keithk ,
You will need a device that can download and install the Arduino software and the USB driver. Unfortunately, you will not be able to use Chromebooks. Thanks for your question!
